Speaker Kevin McCarthy says he is set to meet with Pres. Biden this week to discuss the Republican House majority's views on federal government spending and raising the country's borrowing limit in order to avoid a debt default.

"I know the president said he didn't want to have any discussions, but I think it's very important that our whole government is designed to find compromise," McCarthy said"I want to find a reasonable and a responsible way that we can lift the debt ceiling but take control of this runway spending," McCarthy said, later adding, "I don't think there's anyone in America who doesn't agree that there's some wasteful Washington spending that we can...

The debt limit doesn't allow government spending on new programs; rather, it allows the U.S. to borrow any money it needs to pay for what Congress has already authorized. Pressed on what he meant by strengthen -- and whether he saw that as including changes to the programs like raising the retirement age -- McCarthy said: "No, no, no. What I'm talking about Social Security, Medicare, you keep that to the side."

The speaker also did not say if he would support a short-term debt limit extension to buy more time for negotiations but said that he intended to see the government continue to be funded.is what the Democrats are doing right now, saying we just raise the limit. ... They won't even negotiate. We have now till June," he said.

No no McCarthy has to find compromise with Jack Smith!! Your in danger girl!!!

What is your proposal

No. There is no reason to capitulate to the rantings on the right.

Biden: Clean bill McCarthy: We demand cuts! B: What do you want to cut? M: IDK. What do YOU want to cut? B: Nothing M: Biden refuses to negotiate with us.

Biden shouldn't compromise with traitors.

Qevins weirdos don't know what compromise means.

How can you find compromise with people who don't want to compromise?

No he doesn’t.

The United States does not negotiate with terrorists (Unless you're Trump or Reagan)

Spend along to get along.

The Smithsonian is closed this month.

Bamcare. Bam!

Joe 'The Compromiser' Biden will not fail.

Didn't he vote for the two trillion dollar tax cut Trump added to deficit and raise debt limit every single year of Trump debt raising term?

uh no

Good!

Pres. Biden said he would sit down with Republican's and compromise as a candidate, yet now he's refusing to do so.

No, he does not. They raise the debt ceiling three times for Trump.

The President of the United States should not negotiate with Terrorists

Yea not all of us spread those cheeks to get what they want…. Speaker of the house with all that power he gave up should be “ squeaker “ of the house…

Biden, the most divisive Pres in modern history. He’s corrupt and inept. Can’t wait for him to be gone.

No. He doesn’t.

Nah. If you want budget compromises then present a new budget and let’s negotiate. But no President should negotiate with a House majority who is threatening a default in bad faith over money already allocated. The answer should be “no”.

Why would you meet with Biden? He said no compromise and claims Republicans are a threat to his version of Democracy.

Hostage taker is demanding negotiations...

All these years of Republicans calling compromise a dirty word and now they want compromise. Go fish.

McCarthy said they will learn how to govern after that clown show of a speaker vote🙄🙄 tell you all you need to know how this congress session will go

If McCarthy doesn’t deliver for the freedom clown show he can kiss the gavel goodbye ✌🏽✌🏽

Actually there was no response. He took a nap, forgot where he was, then talked to his imaginary friend.

So GOP takes the House and immediately starts a fire for attention. Democrat president so dust off the tired old Obama spending trick 🙄. Then they threaten to burn down the whole economy... again. Why would Biden want any part of that shit show? Just fucking govern!

Fuck that

The GOP seems to be based on pretence and fantasy.

You ever sit on a teeter-totter when You were a kid? And that moment came when You put that person at the other end, high into the air…before suddenly getting off and letting go? Hey, POTUS PAPA JOE…C’mere…I’ve got a suggestion on how to handle McCarthy. 😏

Ha Ha! It’s McCarthy that will be doing all the compromising. He’s in way over his head with Dark Brandon. McCarthy is nothing but the court jester.

Bullshit! GOP deadbeats needs to pay their damn bills!

Have we shut down the government yet because we hit the debt ceiling

Pay the bills

🤣No, Potus JoeBiden is doing just fine and doesn't have to 'find compromise' with the HouseGOP! SpeakerMcCarthy is trying to make himself sound like the 'voice of reason' when he is just suffering from the 'perils of constipation!' HouseDemocrats

Ok, why are we writing headlines like it's a fact?

I'll just go ahead and say it, elections have consequences, Libs. fact

We all know what POTUS is going to tell you!!

No, he doesn’t.

GOP should honor the Constitution and pay the bill.

UniParty fake drama

Shut it down until democrats agree with republicans.

No he doesn’t. HouseGOP should honor our bills and pay them.

lol no he doesn’t

LOL. Suck it, Kevin.

McCarthy folds like origami.

After he finally won the gavel after 15 votes he said now we will learn how to govern😳😳😳😳 seriously how long has McCarthy been in office🙄

My suggestion is Pres. Biden lead with, 'Kevin we have to cut spending so let's start with the GOP Congress taking salary cuts, and reducing staff to bare bones'. See how quickly the debt ceiling is raised.

Biden is an able negotiator and McCarthy has ability to be as well if he so chooses. Both men know each other’s strong & weak points well, so let’s wait before we jump to conclusions.

Biden shouldn't meet until Republicans present their plans on cutting the budget. Meeting before then would allow McCarthy to claim he's 'negotiating in good faith,' even though his own Caucus hasn't agreed to approve specific cuts.

America has a 'borrowing limit' and is in danger of 'a debt default'.💩 The establishment's propaganda goes on and on ... WE MUST BELIEVE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH MONEY FOR THAT! They can't do anything for us, unless they have some money. FreeJulianAssangeNOW

I will not hold my breath for McCarthy to have anything reasonable to say.

Will lead to nothing

You think Joe respects 0-14 Kevy and his 🤡?

🐕‍🦺🐕‍🦺🦮🐅🦮🐕🦯🦯🦯🐾🐾🐾🖕

Rule 01: Never negotiate with terrorists.

Keep trying McCarthy. Maybe Biden will give you the time of day if you ask often enough.

I watched it. He lied constantly, dodged questions and made excuses

I'm surprised Marjorie Taylor Green is letting her lap dog off the leash! 😠

So he plans on wasting the President’s time…

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to Meet With Biden, Expected to Discuss Debt CeilingPresident Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy are scheduled to meet at the White House on Wednesday as Republican lawmakers push to tie spending cuts to an increase in the debt ceiling Remind me again why the GOP didn't do this when they had control of the House, the Senate and the White House under Trump and chose instead to blow up the deficit? The money printing and the government spending are the root causes of inflation Funny the Democrat just passed trillion dollar bill and you're blaming it on the Republicans?
